So basicly its a game changer, but only to the exxtend the xsx can handle. Any extra juice after that is waste potential? This aparantly will be one of thouse ocassion where extra power does not scale right? I could see why you wherent ipressed with ratchet and clank, but I would recomend you look outside your buble and catch up what people are saying online. Everyone seems to be amazed at the near instant ttransitions from the warping. and lets say the xsx was attempting the same game, if that little purple tunel was the hidden loading screen and i took the ps5 like 1s to switch, how fast do you think the xsx make the transition? |
Totally agree. I have no doubt that anything possible on Sony SSD's would be technically possible on Series X or a "normal" pc SSD too. But if there would be a 3 second purple loading tunnel, instead of 1, it would break the whole effect. If a multiplatform game takes 100% advantage of the ps5's io speed, it simply means developers would still need to use tricks (even though less noticeable than on current gen) to run it on Series X with less than half the throughput. Therefore, we'll probably see games being more seamless and fluid on ps5, while we could also see a bit better ray tracing and gpu releated stuff on Series X.
However, with ps5 exclusives developers can build their whole game around the ps5's SSD speed and do things that probably wouldn't work on Series X. Ratchet & Clank is just an early example but if it had 3 second loading times in the purple tunnel, Imsoniac probably wouldn't have made the portal jumping a core gameplay mechanic or scratched the idea all together.
